Why can't the world revolve around me?

The man seemed like an explorer himself, having been "all over". That puzzled the child, whose brain couldn't stretch too far. "All over?" she repeated, tilting her chin. "What does that mean?" Perhaps it meant he had travelled across the entire continent, venturing through every corner of every region, though unfortunately, she wouldn't be able to figure that out without him telling her.
Then he wondered if she had been around the caves before. So that was what this place was called - caves. Apparently they were quiet as well - not something that took the child's interest though she considered an exploration sometime in the future. "No..." she slowly replied guiltily, jealous of the male who seemed to have been everywhere. Lowering her voice, she murmured like she was giving away a secret, "But don't tell mum I've been here." If only she could be like him. He probably could go anywhere without his parents telling him off, or restricting his adventures. That wasn't fair; she wanted freedom too!
